MACHETE TRAILERS!
May 10th 2010 01:00
Rodriguez had so much fun making the “fake” trailer that he decided a feature was on the crooked cards. Three years later the feature is about to be unleashed, and it’s now apparent Rodriguez has garnered a motley crew of A-listers slumming it with has-beens; Michelle Rodriguez (no relation to the director), Jessica Alba, Robert De Niro, Lindsay Lohan, Jeff Fahey, Cheech Marin, Don Johnson, and Steven Seagal. Rose McGowan reprises her role as Cherry Darling from Planet Terror, as does SFX guru Tom Savini as Deputy Tolo, and the Avellan twins, Electra and Elise, return also, this time as Nurse Mona and Sexy Nurse #2, respectively.
I’m not entirely sold on the idea of using such well-known actors, but no doubt the movie will still be a lot of popcorn-throwing, beer-swillin’, Dutchie-passin’ mischief fun. I just hope it’s as outrageous, politically-incorrect, ultra-violent, and badly cut as the “fake” trailer suggested. Curiously, Rodriguez’s long-time assistant editor Ethan Maniquis has a co-director credit on the movie.
Machete is due for release in the US in September.

Furthermore, the Republicans use films like this to perpetuate the sterotype that all Mexicans are "violent" and a threat to the state and must be forcibly rermoved. I respect your opinion Bryn but I am boycotting this film and so is everyone else I know.

Anyone with half a brain can see that it's simply going to be a throwback to the days of fantastically un-PC exploitation films and, as such, anyone who would take it seriously is a lost cause anyway. The only thing boycotting this film is going to do is rob you of the experience of seeing it.
